It took me a long time to wrap my head around Twitter and why the hell anyone would want to be on it. It's essentially a stream of Facebook updates. In fact, many people have them linked so they're Tweet and Facebook update are the same. That's okay once in awhile, but all the time is annoying. Some people, comedians, mostly, have found ways to make Twitter into it's own art form. If you are not following Steve Martin, you're missing out on a comedy genius experimenting with a new medium while also being very funny.

The biggest acknowledgment on Twitter is to have your tweet retweeted. That's where someone liked what you wrote so much, they sent it along to all of their followers. I have been on Twitter for a year, now. Here are some of my Tweets that got the golden retweet.
